Active clinical trials for "Cellulitis"

The purpose of this study is to determine whether oral cephalexin is equivalent to intravenous cefazolin plus oral probenecid for the treatment of uncomplicated skin and soft tissue infections in patients that present to the emergency department.

The purpose of this Phase 3 trial is to evaluate the efficacy, safety, and tolerability of oritavancin in ABSSSIs, including those caused by MRSA and to evaluate the potential economic benefit of oritavancin administered as a single 1200 mg IV dose.

This was a real-world, prospective, open-label, multicenter study in which participants were randomized (1:1) to receive intravenous (IV) vancomycin or IV daptomycin. The purpose of this study is to compare infection-related hospital length of stay, along with a number of participant-reported outcomes, between participants with complicated skin and soft tissue infection treated with daptomycin and vancomycin.

This will provided long-term safety and efficacy data for ACZ885 (a fully human anti-interleukin-1β [anti-IL-1β] monoclonal antibody) given as an injection subcutaneously in patients who participated in the CACZ885A2102 (NCT00487708), CACZ885D2201 (NCT00685373) or CACZ885D2304(NCT00465985) studies or newly identified patients with the following cryopyrin-associated periodic syndromes: Familial Cold Autoinflammatory Syndrome, Muckle-Wells Syndrome or Neonatal Onset Multisystem Inflammatory Disease. The duration of this study was 6 months with a maximum duration of 2 years

Two Phase III trials to demonstrate the efficacy and safety of oritavancin in the treatment of complicated skin and skin structure infections (cSSSI) have been completed. The pharmacokinetic profile of oritavancin in humans suggests that oritavancin has the potential to be used safely and effectively when given either as a single dose or as an infrequent dose for cSSSI. Data from animals support this theory. SIMPLIFI has been designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of either a single dose of oritavancin or an infrequent dose of oritavancin (First dose on Day one with an option for a second dose on Day five) compared to the previously studied dosing regimen of 200mg oritavancin given once daily for 3 to 7 days.

Primary Objective: To make a preliminary assessment of the efficacy of CG400549 (960 mg daily) in subjects with cABSSSI (major cutaneous abscesses) due to MRSA. Secondary Objective(s): To assess the pharmacokinetics of CG400549 (960 mg daily) in subjects with cABSSSI due to MRSA To explore the in vitro susceptibility of cABSSSI-related bacteria to CG400549. To assess the safety of multiple doses of CG400459

Study 0017 compares the safety and effectiveness of an investigational drug, telavancin, and an approved drug, vancomycin, for the treatment of complicated skin and skin structure infections.

The goal of this study is to determine if topical SB-275833 ointment, 1% is as safe and effective as topical sodium fusidate ointment, 2% for the treatment of impetigo in adults and children as young as 9 months of age.

The proposed study is a prospective, open-label, randomized, multi-center trial of ceftaroline versus vancomycin for the treatment of ABSSSI in patients documented or at risk for MRSA. Patients admitted to the Detroit Medical Center, Henry Ford Hospital, or St. John Medical Center in Detroit Michigan with a documented ABSSSI between April 2012 and November 2015 will be evaluated for inclusion. Patients must present with at least 3 of the following local signs/symptoms: pain, tenderness, swelling erythema, warmth, drainage/discharge, induration, and lymph node swelling/tenderness. Patients will be randomized 1:1 ceftaroline or vancomycin with optional anaerobic and/or Gram-negative coverage. The assignment of study drug will follow a randomized list that was previously generated via a computerized random mix block generator (nQuery Advisor® 7.0) and available at each of the study sites. Patients will be randomized to ceftaroline intravenously at 600 mg infused over 1 hour every 12 hours for patients with normal renal function. Patients randomized to vancomycin will receive the standard 15 mg/kg dose based on total body weight infused over 1 hour q 12 hour, dose and interval adjusted based on creatinine clearance and via institution-specific pharmacy protocol to target serum trough concentrations of 10-20 mg/L within the first 72 hours. Outcomes measured in the Clinically Evaluable patient population include day two or three size reduction (percentage) and clinical response at end of therapy or discharge.
